"U.S. Juries Grow Tougher on Plaintiffs in Lawsuits," the New York Times page-one headline reads. The story details how, in 1992, plaintiffs won 52 percent of the personal injury cases decided by jury verdicts, a decline from the 63 percent plaintiff success rate in 1989. The sound-byte explanations follow, including the notion that juries have learned that they, as part of the general population, ultimately pay the costs of high verdicts. Similar stories, reporting both increases and decreases in jury award levels, regularly make headlines. Jury Verdict Research, Inc. (JVR), a commercial service that sells case outcome information, often is …

Third World Texas: Nafta, State Law, And Environmental Problems Facing Texas Colonias Symposium - The Environment And The United States-Mexico Border - Comment., David L. Hanna
St. Mary's Law Journal
The horrendous conditions along the Texas-Mexico border stem from factors on both sides of the Rio Grande River, including maquiladoras, migrant farms, poverty, poor land development, and bureaucracy. The adverse living conditions in Texas’s third world border region have resulted in immense health and safety problems. The United States government promised the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) would bring new environmental prosperity to the border region. Yet, aside from one sentence in the preamble, NAFTA does not directly address environmental protection. The United States and Mexico, as part of a series of environmental side agreements, created the Border Environmental …
Scientific Evidence Under Daubert., John H. Mansfield
Scientific Evidence Under Daubert., John H. Mansfield
St. Mary's Law Journal
The controversy over the proper standard for the admissibility of scientific evidence is an argument over the value of a jury trial compared with a bench trial or decisions by scientists. The argument has both a constitutional dimension in the provisions relating to a jury trial, compulsory process and due process, and a nonconstitutional dimension in the ordinary law of evidence. In the recent case of Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the United States Supreme Court took a different approach, basing its decision almost entirely on an interpretation of the particular words used in Rule 702 of the Federal …

Changing The Nature Of Corporate Representation: Attorney Liability For Aiding And Abetting The Breach Of Fiduciary Duty Comment., Stanley Pietrusiak Jr.
St. Mary's Law Journal
In 1983, the American Bar Association (ABA) comprehensively defined corporate counsel’s ethical duties in situations where a corporate officer engages in conduct which could substantially harm the organization. In such cases, the nature of the corporate attorney’s duties depends on whether the officer’s conduct is illegal or whether the officer made a policy decision which falls short of illegality. Rule 1.13 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct imposes the duty on corporate counsel to take steps to stop corporate officers from engaging in illegal conduct which is likely to result in substantial injury to the organization. Conversely, counsel is …
